Donna,

I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. We had to have our 13-year-old Siberian Husky put to sleep a little over a month ago. It never gets any easier to go through this type of thing even as we get older.

I think dogs are completely loyal, and they just want to make us happy, you know? They're always happy to see their families even if we say things we shouldn't have. Give him lots of hugs and pets. And take care of you, too.
